Naperville Seeks New Bid On Trash

March 19, 1986

The Naperville City Council has asked its staff to renegotiate a garbage contract bid by Fox Valley Disposal Co. The council wants the firm, the only bidder for the five-year pact, to lower its price from $9.43 per stop on its twice-weekly garbage pick-ups, said Naperville spokeswoman Joanne O`Connor. Under the current bid, Fox Valley Disposal, a division of Waste Management of Illinois Inc., would pick up garbage bags, as well as furniture, tires and yard cuttings at city residences, O`Connor said.
